Mel's Place Cabin

About

Off grid glamping cabin for 2 adults. 325 square feet. Romantic, cozy, rustic and clean. Renovated 2021.

Fantastic location. Close to everything! Gorgeous mountain views just 5 miles from Big Bend national park and 15 miles from Big Bend Ranch State park. Only 7 miles to the lively ghostown of Terlingua and home of the original world class chili cookoff.

Mel's Place is private, quiet, feels remote yet only a mile or so to all the amenities you may need.

With some of the darkest skies in the country, the stargazing here is top notch. Maybe you will see the Milky Way for the first time.

Come to the desert and renew your spirit at Mel's Place!
